Totals | $ 0 | $ 16,000 | $ 16,000 |
As acceptance of the special order leads to increase in net operating income by $ 16,000, the special order should be accepted.
Fixed overhead and fixed selling expenses are not relevant, as they would remain unchanged regardless of the decision to accept or reject the special order.
2. If acceptance of the special order results in loss of regular orders, there is opportunity cost involved.
Contribution margin per regular order = $ 100 - $ 76 = $ 24.
Therefore, minimum price to be quoted for special order = Variable Cost per Unit + Contribution Margin lost per unit of regular order = $ 57 + $ 24 = $ 81
